Abstract

Introduction: Oral soft tissue lesion is an abnormal condition of the oral soft tissue. Clinically this lesion can be seen from the changes of colour and size in the surface of the oral soft tissues. There are various types of lesions in the oral cavity, including primary and secondary lesions. The treatment of each lesion is also different, it can be with non-surgical treatment, or surgical treatment. Biopsy is a surgical treatment procedure where tissue is taken for histopathological examination. The purpose of biopsy is to help establish a diagnosis and determine the prognosis of a treatment. After an excisional biopsy, dentists usually give patients anti-inflammatory as a pain control. Anti-inflammatory drugs devide into two groups, steroid and non-steroidal drugs. The most commonly used are non-steroidal groups. The use of anti-inflammatory drugs is seen based on the best therapeutic effects and the fewest side effects. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the prescription profile of anti-inflammatory drugs after excision biopsy of soft tissue disease performed by dentists in Palembang. Method: This research was a descriptive study with survey technique. This research was conducted at the dentist's practice and the hospital's dental clinic in Palembang. Data was collected using a questionnaire form which was filled in by the respondents themselves. The questionnaire consists of several questions that were considered representative to find out how the prescription profile of anti-inflammatory use after excision biopsy of oral soft tissue disease by dentists and or specialist in Palembang. Results: The results of the study showed that the frequency distribution of anti-inflammatory drugs used by dentists in Palembang after excision biopsy was diclofenac (52.5%) and tablet preparations are the main choice (92.5%). Conclusion: The most widely used prescription of anti-inflammatory drugs after excision biopsy of oral soft tissue disease by dentists in Palembang was diclofenac, and tablet preparation of anti-inflammatory drugs was most prescribed by dentist in Palembang.

Abstract

Background: Thalassemia is a group of hemolytic diseases caused by genetic disorders resulting from a decrease in the synthesis of the alpha or beta chains of hemoglobin (Hb). A particular craniofacial cephalometric picture is found in the form of mild skeletal class II clinical manifestations. The anterior cranial base becomes a benchmark or reference sector in the measurement of dentofacial structures on cephalometric radiographs because it is considered relatively stable throughout craniofacial growth. Objective: The purpose of this systematic literature review was to determine the effect of beta thalassemia major on the length of the anterior cranial base observed through cephalometric analysis. Methods: References were selected using the PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar databases published from January 2007 to December 2021. The complete articles that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were then assessed using the Critical Appraisal Skills Program bias assessment and summarized to obtain demographic data and the length of the patient's anterior cranial base in the journal. Results: This systematic literature review succeeded in synthesizing 6 journals consisting of case-control studies with low bias assessment results in 4 journals and moderate bias assessment in 2 journals. All journals in this systematic literature review stated that the length of the anterior cranial base in patients with beta thalassemia major was not much different from the control group seen in cephalometric analysis. Conclusion: There is no effect on the length of the anterior cranial base in patients with beta thalassemia major based on measurements on cephalometric analysis.

Abstract

Introduction: High colonization of Candida albicans in mouth can increase the risk of oral candidiasis. Duku peel (Lansium domesticum Corr.) has potential as antifungal material due to its terpenoid and phenolic content which can be extracted with n-hexane as solvent. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine the antifungal activity of n-hexane extract of duku peel against Candida albicans. Methods: This study used laboratorium experimental with post test only control group study design. Antifungal activity was determined using disc diffusion method on five sample groups: n-hexane extract of duku peel 15%, 20%, and 25%, nystatin as positive control, and aquadest as negative control. Antifungal activity was determined by measuring clear zone around the disc and measured with caliper in millimeter. The measurement of inhibition zone was analyzed with One Way ANOVA test. Results: There were no inhibition zone on n-hexane extract of duku peel with concentration of 15%, 20%, 25% and negative control while positive control had average inhibition zone diameter of 11,85 mm. Conclusion: N-hexane extract of duku peel with concentration of 15%, 20%, and 25% did not have antifungal activity against Candida albicans.

Abstract

Introduction: Enamel is the hardest substance in the human body and serves as the wear-resistant outer layer of the dental crown. Demineralization releases mineral ions which cause a decrease in the enamel surface hardness. Demineralization could be neutralized to recover minerals, and this process is called remineralization. Almond milk was an alternative to cow’s milk, supporting tooth enamel surface remineralization. Purpose: To determine the effect of almond milk on enamel hardness. Methods: Twenty maxillary premolars were divided into group A (control) and group B (almond milk). Before treatment, samples were soaked in 1% citric acid. Enamel hardness was tested with Vickers Hardness Tester. The statistical tests used in this study were Paired t-test and Independent Sample t-Test. Results: The results of the paired sample test got significant results in groups A and B in the comparison of pretest - 1% citric acid, and 1% citric acid - posttest, which means that there was a significant difference in enamel hardness values. However, the results obtained were not substantial in groups A and B in the posttest- pretest comparison. There was no significant difference between Group A and Group B in the independent sample test results. There was an increase before and after, but it was not much different when compared to the control. Conclusion: Almond milk can increase enamel surface hardness but cannot reverse the initial enamel surface hardness value.

Abstract

Introduction: Mucocele is a lesion on the oral mucosa as a benign mass caused by retention or extravasation of mucus in the tissue around the lamina propria. Mucocele mainly occurs on the lower lip mucosa. Purpose: This case report aimed to describe the history, clinical examination, and simple surgical removal of mucocele, thus it can strengthen the knowledge of the general dental practitioner. Case presentation: A 6-year-old female child visited the Dental and Oral Hospital of South Sumatera Province with complaints of swelling on the right inner lower lip about 2 weeks ago. The swelling disappeared because it ruptured due to being bitten 2 months ago, then reappeared in the last 2 weeks. Her mother also said that her child had unconsciously bit her lower lip almost every day for the last few months. The results of an objective examination of the lesion showed a fluctuating vesicle lesion on the labial mucosa of the right lower lip, approximately 5 mm in diameter, did not bleed easily, was soft and painless upon palpation, had a translucent bluish-pink color. Based on the results of subjective, objective, and supporting examinations, the diagnosis in this case was a mucocele with a differential diagnosis of fibroma and hemangioma. The treatment plan included surgical excision and post-surgery instructions as well as instructions to stop the bad habits to prevent the recurrences.  Conclusion: Mucocele is one of the most common soft tissue lesions in children and it can be treated with simple surgical excision.
